When the price of rice is increased by 30 percent, a family reduces its consumption such that the expenditure is only 20 percent more than before. If 50 kg of rice is consumed by family before, then find the new consumption of family (approx.)
Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Mock Test - 9 - Question 4

Answer – d) 46kg Explanation : Suppose initially price per kg of rice is 100 then their expenditure is 5000.
Now their expenditure is only increased by only 20% i.e – 6000.
Increased price of rice = 130.
So new consumption = 6000/130 = 46

Vijay bought some pens for Rs. 540. He lost 2 pens on his way back to the shop. Then, he sold the rest of the pens at Rs. 6 more (per pen) than what he paid for them. On the whole transaction, Vijay gained 10% on his outlay. How many pens did Vijay buy?
Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Mock Test - 9 - Question 5

Let the total number of pens bought be x.
Total CP = Rs. 540

On simplifying, we get
6x2 - 66x - 1080 = 0
(x - 20)(x + 9) = 0
 x = 20 or x = -9
Therefore, 20 pens were bought.

Gopal, a cunning milkman, buys milk from Frontier Dairy Junction and sells it to gullible housewives. He buys milk at Rs. 35 per litre and adds 250 ml of pure water to a litre of the thick creamy milk. He sells the mixture so formed at Rs. 45 per litre. What is his approximate profit percentage? It is to be assumed that it costs him next to nothing to mix the milk in water.
Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Mock Test - 9 - Question 6

Cost price for 1250 ml of solution = Cost of 1 litre of pure milk = Rs. 35
Sale price of 1250 ml of solution = Rs. (45/1000) × 1250 = Rs. 56.25
Thus, profit percent = (56.25 - 35)/35 × 100 = 60.7 =  60 (Approx)
Hence, answer option 3 is correct.

A car accident occurred on a busy street intersection killing two people and injuring three others. In order to nab the culprits, the police took the statements of all the witnesses present at that intersection, when the accident happened.
Some of the witnesses were in a state of shock because of the horrific accident and were unable to correctly reproduce the details of the accident. The witnesses who were in a state of shock provided all incorrect details while the rest of the witnesses provide the correct information about the accident. 

The following statements have been recorded by the police:

Witness 1: Three people were killed in the accident by a red car that ran over them.
Witness 2: The green car had a license plate with eight symbols on it, two of them being letters and the rest being digits.
Witness 3: The car was blue in colour and was being driven by a young man with two people sitting in the backseat, one of them being a woman.
Witness 4: Each of the last four digits on the license plate of the car was a power of the same number and they were in the ascending order.
Witness 5: There was a blue car involved in the accident and a yellow car was right behind it. The blue car injured two people and rushed away from the spot.
Witness 6: The car was a green Maruti with four people in it. The car hit five people injuring three of them.
Witness 7: If numbers are assigned to the two letters on the license plate of the car with A being 1, B being 2 and so on, then the sum of the two letters on the license plate was equal to the sum of the last four digits. The letters were from A-l with the letter with the lower value coming first. The last four digits were in the ascending order.

 

 

 Q. Among the last four digits on the license plate, what was the difference between the last digit and the first digit?
Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Mock Test - 9 - Question 10

Solution: From the statements made by witnesses 2, 4 and 7, it is known that the last four digits on the license plate were four powers of the same number in ascending order.
The only way this can happen is if all four digits are powers of 2.
The only powers of 2 that are single digit numbers in ascending order are 2°, 21, 22 and 23 i.e. 1,2, 4 and 8.
The digits are 1,2, 4 and 8 from left to right.
So, the required difference = 8 - 1 = 7 Hence, option 4.

Q. Which of the following could have been the first letter in the license plate?  
Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Mock Test - 9 - Question 11

Solution: Consider the solution to the previous question.Thus, the last four numbers on the license plate are 1, 2, 4 and 8.The sum of the last four digits is 15.The possible numeric value of the first 2 letters is (7, 8) or (6, 9)The letters corresponding to these numbers are (G, H) for (7, 8) and (F, I) for (6, 9) The only possibilities for the first letter are G or F since the letters are also arranged with the letter with lower value coming first.Thus, G could have been the first letter in the license plate. Hence, option 1.

DEER = 12215 and HIGH = 5654, how will you code HEEL?
Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Mock Test - 9 - Question 17

To solve the coding pattern, let's analyze the given codes for DEER and HIGH:

  • DEER = 12215
  • HIGH = 5654

We'll try to understand the pattern by matching each letter with its corresponding number.

For DEER:

  • D -> 1
  • E -> 2
  • E -> 2
  • R -> 5

For HIGH:

  • H -> 5
  • I -> 6
  • G -> 5
  • H -> 4

Let's try to find the pattern or rule:

  1. D, E, R in DEER:

    • D = 1
    • E = 2
    • R = 5

  2. H, I, G, H in HIGH:

    • H = 5 (H = 5 for HIGH, but H = 5 and 4 in DEER and HIGH respectively)
    • I = 6
    • G = 5
    • H = 4

Now, let's find the code for HEEL:

  • H -> 5 (from HIGH)
  • E -> 2 (from DEER)
  • E -> 2 (from DEER)
  • L -> We need to determine L's code

Since L hasn't appeared yet, we need to figure out its code. Based on patterns, if the trend is alphabetical positioning, L could potentially be coded uniquely. Let's explore the pattern in numbers:

  • H = 5
  • E = 2
  • E = 2
  • L = ?

Considering possible consistency in coding and based on given options, the most logical way might use the remaining structure within the problem’s predefined context for HEEL = 5229.

So, the most likely answer should be:

4. 5229

Direction: Read the following passage carefully and answer the following questions.

The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has kicked off the process to set new standards to measure quality of services offered to consumers across different sectors, including telecom, aviation, e-commerce and healthcare.

The BIS, which sets the quality regulations for various products from gold to bottled water, on Friday called a meeting of industry bodies to “persuade them to be part of the process and give their inputs.”

“Service sector is one of the key sectors of the Indian economy with a huge potential to grow into one of the largest markets of the world. Standards can play a major facilitative role in this regard. It is important that the standardisation needs and priorities of the sector are determined,” a senior official said.

During the meeting, the BIS pointed out that the initial focus will be the 12 champion services sectors identified by the government. These include IT, tourism and hospitality, transport and logistics, accounting and finance services, legal services, communication services and construction.

The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) standards is set to formulate a framework for quality services that should be provided to consumers and also talk about the benchmarks to deal with consumer complaints or after sales service in an effort to ensure quality in the services sector.

At a meeting with industry bodies on Friday, it has been decided that the BIS will set up a separate ‘divisional council’ for services in a month’s time. Under this, different technical committees will be set up — one for each service. The committees will have various stakeholders such as government officials, experts and industry representatives.

The process was initiated after concerns over lack of standardisation, particularly with regards to after-sales service, in their feedback to the Ministry of Consumer Affairs.

In a poll, online community network LocalCircles found that in the absence of defined customer service standards in the country, a majority of consumers were not happy with after-sales services. As per the poll, 43% feel that mobile handset and computer manufacturers are the worst in after-sales services, followed by white goods firms (38%) and automobile companies (11%). About 93% of respondents said brands should at least acknowledge complaints from users within 72 hours. “Many consumers complained that customer service numbers of many companies do not work,” according to LocalCircles.

Q. Which among the following is the main reason of initiating the standardization drive of the Bureau of Indian Standards for the services sector?

Among the given options, statement A may be true but only because a sector is contributing to GDP cannot be considered for the sole ground for initiating standardization drive in this sector.
